Hello all - Wanted to share our latest blog post about Infor ERP Enterprise http://www.i-app.com/blog.html and ask a question of the group. How important is the availability of experienced Infor ERP LN and Baan consultants for your decision to upgrade to Infor10?

Online dashboards are frequent user queries / reports with set of all inter-related questions capable of being answered by the dashboard under user control (and not the user under control of dashboard).

Yet another application to get integrated with MS Excel . Worth noting the importance of integration with MS Excel.

There is plethora of excel integrators. So while choosing excel integrator one must consider which provider/solution / download boosts the analytical capabilities of Excel (which is the core functionality of excel) and encourages free-form exchange and usage of excel . The ones which merely copies existing report in same format in excel may be useful but certainly not useful from analytical point of view . While getting excel integration , boosting the analytical capabilities and freedom of data exchange and usage must be central and focal point (just the way Sage 200 has also done ) . Further ability to use 100 mil rows in new excel 2010 also may be a consideration .

It may be worth noting "Lack of Integration to Microsoft Excel is one of the major reasons why Sage 50 customers upgrading to Sage 200" .

While working on analysis services found certain good Excel add-ins available freely. Though some of the add-ins are not useful to us as we already have long established smart programs to accomplish much more than these add-ins do , I indicate the same here for those who may wish to use such approach for their excel integration with their database ( whatever it be ).

Here is a blog on a reporting strategy for baan complemented with Excel load clients. This blog discusses various approaches to reporting in Excel and ingredients of successful Excel assisted baan reporting.

WHO SHOULD READ THIS

One should read this blog if:

one is very much comfortable with existing authorizations and semantic layer in Baan (Read baan data dictionary ) technically ( table/domain /field codes ) and functionally (descriptions ) and

one wishes to capitalize on existing learning and knowledge of existing semantic layer in Baan (technically as well as functionally ) and do not wish to invest (or waste??) in learning / migrating /adopting / translating / maintaining new semantic layer for reporting

one is very much adept at using Baan reporting and programming for routine documents and

one’s users enjoy the freedom, flexibility and functionality of spreadsheets (which may be freeware also) for analytical purposes.

there are sufficient Office licenses already with company on PCs with high CPU and memory ( far exceeding basic Excel requirements and which have become norm rather than exceptions ) in one’s place and there is high need to optimally utilize these resources and to reduce the load on servers .

WHO SHOULD NOT READ THIS

One whose objectives are different OR who don’t have any objectives only OR who is extremely satisfied with their current reporting already.
